"Perfect Haunting" lyrics

I wrote this song for you
'Cause they said I'll go today
I'll try and stay strong for you
And then I'll be on my way
They'll welcome me to Heaven
And I'll look back on the world and say
That I've been here before
Every day with you on earth, and so

When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting
When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting

Even as a ghost to you
You still mean the most to me
I've the highest hopes for you
In all you'll live to be
And even though I'm gone
Oh, please don't think that you won't hear from me
Just play the songs I wrote for you
And I swear that you'll be near to me and

When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting
When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting

And in my eulogy
Don't speak of the things that only you knew of me
Always stoned at night when the world outside was through with me
You were there, oh, and you'd weather it
Then you'd piece me back together, it's all you, you see
So in my eulogy
Don't speak of the things that only you knew of me
How I'd cry at night when the world outside was through with me
You were there, oh, and you'd weather it
Then you'd piece me back together, it's all you, you see
And so

When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting
When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting

When all that's left is the dust with my bones
Won't you put on my songs and dance with my ghost
In the mornings?
The perfect haunting
